January 10, 2018 Story Time - Whales


If you missed this weeks story time here is what we did:

*marks the books we read
















Breathe  by Scott Magoon*
Whales and Dolphins by Peter and Connie Roop
The Best Book of Whales and Dolphins  by Christiane Gunzi
My World of Animals-Whales  by Frances E. Ruffin*
First Discovery-Whales  by Gallimard Jeunesse*
Hello, Baby Beluga  by Darrin Lunde

For our craft we colored a small whale then taped it to a craft stick to make a puppet. Each child was given a paper plate that had been cut through the middle. One half was colored blue to look like the ocean. The whale puppet could then be inserted through the slit in the plate to make it look like it was swimming in the water.

Extra activities
Have You Seen the Big Gray Whale?
(sung to "Do You Know the Muffin Man")
Have you seen the big gray whale,
the big gray whale, the big gray whale?
have you seen the big gray whale
that's swimming in the sea?

Yes, I've seen the big gray whale,
the big gray whale, the big gray whale
yes, I've seen the big gray whale
he waved his tail at me!

More verses: Have you seen the orca whale, the big blue whale, the beluga whale, etc
